Is it a higher iron content in the soil? What makes it denser? thank you.

I am handicapped and would be on it with my electric scooter.

I wouldn’t recommend it. High levels of heat and moisture tend to be very bad for wood floors of all kinds.

Hope this helps!

Can you reccommend a sealer and type of clear stain. Also if there is a specific procedure to follow.

Thanks

Mike

We lightly sanded and recoated them with the same finish we had used the first time, but white spots appeared and ruined the look of the finish. We sanded them lightly again, and a little harder on the spots and then reapplied it. Even more spots appeared over time. Do you have a suggestion for us to try?
